These Official Rules govern the GladiatorGarageWorks.com Ratings and Reviews Sweepstakes (the "Sweepstakes") offered by Gladiator®GarageWorks, a division of Whirlpool Corporation (the "Sponsor").

To Enter: During the Sweepstakes Period, you may enter the Sweepstakes through one of the following methods:

Then post a review of any product and you will be automatically entered into the Sweepstakes. You may review as many products as you wish and each product review will constitute one (1) entry. All product reviews are subject to the Terms and Conditions of the ratings and review site. Sponsor does not guarantee the public posting of any product review and reserves the right, in its sole discretion, not to post your review for any reason, including, but not limited to, if it contains any content that infringes upon the copyrights of any third parties or contains obscene, lewd or offensive language.

To enter without providing a product review, on a 3" x 5" piece of paper, hand-print your full name, complete address, e-mail address, daytime and evening telephone numbers (area codes included), and mail entry in a properly stamped #10 envelope to Whirlpool Corporation, Attn: Gladiator Ratings & Reviews Sweepstakes, 2000 N.

Limit one (1) entry per stamped outer envelope. Each mail-in entry must be mailed separately.

By submitting a product review as part of an online entry, entrant hereby grants permission for the product review to be posted on www.gladiatorgarageworks.com and entrant agrees that Sponsor is not responsible for any unauthorized use of product reviews by third parties. Multiple reviews of the same product are not valid. Entries generated by a script, computer programs, macro, programmed, robotic or other automated means are void and will be disqualified.

Entries will be deemed made by the authorized account holder of the e-mail address submitted at the time of entry. In the event of a dispute, the potential winner may be required to provide proof that he or she is the authorized holder of the identified e-mail account. Sponsor is not responsible for entries that are lost, late, garbled, damaged, illegible or otherwise deficient or incompletely received for any reason. Sponsor is not responsible for technical, hardware or software failures or errors of any kind; lost or unavailable network connections; or incomplete, garbled or delayed computer transmissions. Sponsor, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to disqualify any person tampering with the entry process or otherwise in violation of these Rules. Sponsor further reserves the right to cancel, terminate or modify any promotion not capable of completion as planned, including by tampering, unauthorized intervention or force majeure.

Random Drawing: One (1) winner will be determined in a random drawing on or by January 9, 2015. Potential prize winner will be notified via email as identified through entry submission on or by January 15, 2015 and may be required to sign and return within one (1) week of notification, an Affidavit of Eligibility and Publicity release. Failure to comply with deadline may result in forfeiture of prize and selection of an alternate winner. If Sponsor is not able to contact the potential prize winner, or if the potential prize winner is disqualified for any reason, Sponsor may select an alternate potential prize winner from among all remaining eligible entries. Sponsor may select up to three (3) alternate prize winners; thereafter, if a potential prize winner cannot be verified in accordance with these Official Rules, the prize will not be awarded. Odds of winning are determined by the number of eligible entries.

Prize: One (1) winner will receive one (1) GearTrack® Pack Organization Kit. Retail value of the prize is $59.99.
